Parameters (to methods, initializers, accessors, subscripts, etc) have always been represented
as Pattern's (of a particular sort), stemming from an early design direction that was abandoned.
Being built on top of patterns leads to patterns being overly complicated (e.g. tuple patterns
have to have varargs and default parameters) and make working on parameter lists complicated
and error prone. This might have been ok in 2015, but there is no way we can live like this in
2016.
Instead of using Patterns, carve out a new ParameterList and Parameter type to represent all the
parameter specific stuff. This simplifies many things and allows a lot of simplifications.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do this very incrementally, so this is a huge patch. The good
news is that it erases a ton of code, and the technical debt that went with it. Ignoring test
suite changes, we have:
77 files changed, 2359 insertions(+), 3221 deletions(-)
This patch also makes a bunch of wierd things dead, but I'll sweep those out in follow-on
patches.
Fixes <rdar://problem/22846558> No code completions in Foo( when Foo has error type
Fixes <rdar://problem/24026538> Slight regression in generated header, which I filed to go with 3a23d75.
Fixes an overloading bug involving default arguments and curried functions (see the diff to
Constraints/diagnostics.swift, which we now correctly accept).
Fixes cases where problems with parameters would get emitted multiple times, e.g. in the
test/Parse/subscripting.swift testcase.
The source range for ParamDecl now includes its type, which permutes some of the IDE / SourceModel tests
(for the better, I think).
Eliminates the bogus "type annotation missing in pattern" error message when a type isn't
specified for a parameter (see test/decl/func/functions.swift).
This now consistently parenthesizes argument lists in function types, which leads to many diffs in the
SILGen tests among others.
This does break the "sibling indentation" test in SourceKit/CodeFormat/indent-sibling.swift, and
I haven't been able to figure it out. Given that this is experimental functionality anyway,
I'm just XFAILing the test for now. i'll look at it separately from this mongo diff.
This is necessary for some other work I'm doing, which really wants
paramdecls to have reasonable declcontexts. It is also a small step
towards generic subscripts.
Allow all keywords except for parameter introducers (var/let/inout) to
be argument labels when declaring or calling a
function/initializer/subscript, e.g., this
func touchesMatching(phase: NSTouchPhase, `in` view: NSView?) -> Set<NSTouch>
can now be expressed as
func touchesMatching(phase: NSTouchPhase, in view: NSView?) -> Set<NSTouch>
and the call goes from
event.touchesMatching(phase, `in`: view)
to
event.touchesMatching(phase, in: view)
Fixes [SR-344](https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-344) /
rdar://problem/22415674.
Modeling nonescaping captures as @inout parameters is wrong, because captures are allowed to share state, unlike 'inout' parameters, which are allowed to assume to some degree that there are no aliases during the parameter's scope. To model this, introduce a new @inout_aliasable parameter convention to indicate an indirect parameter that can be written to, not only by the current function, but by well-typed, well-synchronized aliasing accesses too. (This is unrelated to our discussions of adding a "type-unsafe-aliasable" annotation to pointer_to_address to allow for safe pointer punning.)
This mostly works the same as for functions. It required a slight tweak
to how we handle 'var <complete>' to avoid consuming the code completion
token prematurely.

When users try to print the interface of a specific type (most often through cursor
infor query of SourceKit), we should simplify the original decls by replacing
archetypes with instantiated types, hiding extension details, and omitting
unfulfilled extension requirements. So the users can get the straight-to-the-point
"type interface". This commit builds the testing infrastructure for this feature,
and implements the first trick that wraps extension contents into the interface body.
This commit also moves some generic testing support from SourceKit to Swift.

Cleans up AST printing somewhat as well as providing slightly better
type-to-declaration mappings for annotated AST printing and indexing.
Swift SVN r32420
My temporary hackery around inferring default arguments from imported
APIs was too horrible. Make it slightly more sane by:
1) Actually marking these as default arguments in the type system,
rather than doing everything outside of the type system. This is a
step closer to what we would really do, if we go in this
direction. Put it behind the new -frontend flag
-enable-infer-default-arguments.
2) Only inferring a default argument from option sets and from
explicitly "nullable" parameters, as stated in the (Objective-)C API
or API notes. This eliminates a pile of spurious, non-sensical "=
nil"'s in the resulting output.
Note that there is one ugly tweak to the overloading rules to prefer
declarations with fewer defaulted arguments. This is a bad
implementation of what is probably a reasonable rule (prefer to bind
fewer default arguments), which intentionally only kicks in when we're
dealing with imported APIs that have default arguments.
Swift SVN r32078
For cases where the Clang importer provides a defaulted argument,
e.g., "[]" for option sets and "nil" for optionals, remove the
corresponding arguments at any call sites that simply specify "[]" or
"nil". Such arguments are basically noise, and tend to harm
readability when there are low-content argument labels like "with:" or
"for".
Some examples from Lister:
self.updateUserActivity(AppConfiguration.UserActivity.watch,
userInfo: userInfo, webpageURL: nil)
becomes
self.updateUserActivity(AppConfiguration.UserActivity.watch,
userInfo: userInfo)
and
contentView.hitTest(tapLocation, with: nil)
becomes
contentView.hitTest(tapLocation)
and
document.closeWithCompletionHandler(nil)
becomes simply
document.close()
and a whole pile of optional "completion handler" arguments go away.
Swift SVN r31978
For a function like
func foo(string aString: String) { ... }
we previously printed
func foo(string: String)
under -skip-parameter-names. Instead, print
func foo(string _: String)
to make it clear that "string" is an argument label here.
The only thing that seems to use this flag are the omit-needless-words
experiments, and this change is tuned to minimally change the output
of such experiments for diff'ability.

This provides better AST fidelity through module files and further
reduces our dependencies on storing a list of protocols on nominal
type declarations.
Swift SVN r31345
This improves the fidelity of the AST printed from a loaded module, as
well as consistency in the AST. Also teach the Clang importer to add
"inherited" clauses, providing better fidelity for the mapping from
Objective-C to Swift.

This is a step toward weeding out the "getProtocols()" list on
TypeDecl. Now, use the Archetype's list of protocols for the set of
protocols to which the type parameter or associated type
conforms. Since that list is fully canonicalized, it's more generally
reliable. However, start serializing the list of inherited types for a
generic type parameter, so we can print it appropriately.
Swift SVN r31297
This way they can be used from other projects, like LLDB. The downside
is we now have to make sure the header is included consistently in all
the places we care about, but I think in practice that won't be a problem,
especially not with tests.

Swift SVN r31173
the regressions that r31105 introduced in the validation tests, as well as fixing a number
of other validation tests as well.
Introduce a new UnresolvedType to the type system, and have CSDiags start to use it
as a way to get more type information out of incorrect subexpressions. UnresolvedType
generally just propagates around the type system like a type variable:
- it magically conforms to all protocols
- it CSGens as an unconstrained type variable.
- it ASTPrints as _, just like a type variable.
The major difference is that UnresolvedType can be used outside the context of a
ConstraintSystem, which is useful for CSGen since it sets up several of them to
diagnose subexpressions w.r.t. their types.
For now, our use of this is extremely limited: when a closureexpr has no contextual
type available and its parameters are invalid, we wipe them out with UnresolvedType
(instead of the previous nulltype dance) to get ambiguities later on.
We also introduce a new FreeTypeVariableBinding::UnresolvedType approach for
constraint solving (and use this only in one place in CSDiags so far, to resolve
the callee of a CallExpr) which solves a system and rewrites any leftover type
variables as UnresolvedTypes. This allows us to get more precise information out,
for example, diagnosing:
func r22162441(lines: [String]) {
lines.map { line in line.fooBar() }
}
with: value of type 'String' has no member 'fooBar'
instead of: type of expression is ambiguous without more context
This improves a number of other diagnostics as well, but is just the infrastructural
stepping stone for greater things.
